Is there no useful possibility to map all elements automatically and check them afterwards manually?
I think this would be fast as manually mapping all the elements.

You might be able to get 80% there with automatic mapping. For our SPA (single page application) applacation the Frames are the key element to map ahead of time and put wildcards in the appropriate place(s).
I will NEVER AGAIN use extended find. I can't tell you how much time this "feature" has cost. YMMV
Manual mapping isn't all that tedious but we may give auto mapping another go of it now that we understand it better.

I am not sure, if I understand you correctly.
1. Did you map the elements via script? e.g. opening the page whose elements should be mapped and then started some script, that mapped all the elements to the namemapping file?
2. what problems with extended find did you have? We could not live without it... The namemapping must be horrible without it! It is sometimes slow but the test is really readable.

1. We currently map the field(s) we are going to use in the keyword test via the object browser
2. Extended find caused us memory issues. The Chrome hook would grow to nearly 2gig and stop responding.
We prefer reliable testing over ease of test creation.Playback speed also seems better without extended find.
